Just viewed a wonderful Turkish gun in Peshawar, even better looking than Glock and was considering to add it to my collection, but cant find any reviews on it. Anybody out there with some comments? Its called Akdal Ghost Tr-101.

Seems you have been looking out for it too, Mr.Balazona. Well, if you need it, I know the place where it is available, asking 58000 for it, but its really nice and solid looking. The Turks have really improvised! I got a pic of it in my documents folder, but just cant find out how to paste or upload it here?

Adkal is very good pistol. It is sort of a prettier Glock.

Indeed, Firepower, the darn thing looks stunningly cool, trigger section looks better than Glocks, and there is a really solid feel about it, the grip, however is more like Glocks and not as displayed on the net, I wonder if it is interchangeable, because the one on the net is just pretty cooler. The problem is a review on this thing. I couldnt find any on the net. Still, nobody out there, who has fired this thing?

Or better yet, please post the picture here as well as all other relating information so we can all benefit.

It looks kool but we dont need another Taurus 24/7 Jamomatic.lol

Come on Balazona, Sir, kidding is o.k, but dont be disheartning about this cool looking thing, as long as we dont have a proper review. Have you by any chance any reasons for thinking it to be another jamomatic? By the way, even the problems with 24/7 may be ammo related, coz international reviews are positive about it. But then they dont have P.O.F ammo over there! Cant understand why people keep sticking to this ammo, when Chinese is availabe, more reliable and even cheaper.

Taurus 24/7 9mm can be HIT or MISS as discussed lot of time.such kind of striker fired pistol cant compete Glock.anyways we cant say anything about that Ghost atleast we get a full range report.

Thanks Balazona Sir, I found your pic, but no, your pic is portraying a Sarsilmaz Defence master. The Ghost is much prettier, even prettier than Glock. Google it with searchword Akdel Ghost 9mm, you may find some pictures. I have in my documents but dont know how to upload or copy them over here, despite a tutorial from Abbas Bhai! Can you help on this issue, then post a new thread?

Salaams. I have my eyes on the ghost for quite a while as an affordable alternative to the Glock. It seems to have a similar structure, with the polymer part more inclined towards the walther p99. There are several reviews about it by people who have simply looked at the picture :
-It seem like a child of a glock and a walther p99
-some have even called it a 4th generation glock!
I have yet to come across a review by someone who has actually fired a couple of hundred rounds from it. For those interested in a video and pictures of it check out:

http://www.akdalarms.com/
http://world.guns.ru/handguns/hg219-e.htm this is definitely not what the real thing looks like!

Please note that UCYILDIZ ARMS IND.CO.,LTD. selling the Akdal brand is a 10 year old company.
There are mixed opinions among dealers about the ghost tr01 (I felt only one was truthful, as he said he didn't know how it was as he had never fired it; by the way he was the only one who had it on display).
I'll visit DAAD and post a more detailed account of what it feels like in the next few days

Very nice. I think I should get this one for all my guards. Looks and works like Glock- then why not?
Either this of Zigana Auto for all, I think.

Balazona

17-03-2009, 03:51 PM

Firepower,i am amazed that u r interested in that pistol which has no positive range report so far.

Taurus

I am amazed too abt FP choosing ghost but after all its his choice..well osam has confirmed me the price of zigana f auto of 100000

yar i will go with balazona..............orignality remains with the Glock.......Taurus tried to imitate them and they failed. Same is going to be the case with this turkish gun...........you want a trustworthy pistol... and glock is the answer

Balazona

17-03-2009, 08:09 PM

I am not bashing this new Turkish Glock clone.we just need a range report and reviews about this pistol.and time will tell that it is HIT or MISS.

Mohammad

17-03-2009, 08:27 PM

actually thepoint is that glock has been around for 15 years now and it has proven its reliability and quality of construction............ any new gun with a copy isnt much to be trusted

Hi guys, two of us took a very good look at it, field stripped it and tried to compare it to a Glock. Compared to a Walther P22, a CZ100 and a Taurus 24/7, this gun is a breeze to take apart (you can probably do it with your eyes closed but I am not suggesting it for safety reasons!!)

If one doesnt know a Glock closely (and when I mean closely, I mean you have to know the Glock in and out), you can easily mistake the Ghost for a Glock (except for the label on it).

In fact while we were examining the Ghost, two chaps accused the dealer for selling a fake Glock (that too when he had informed them that it was a copy of a Glock).

Ergonomics of this gun are excellent, the sights differ from the Glock, they are actually the 3 dot type. The magazines closely resemble the Glock style except the holes dont have a metal lining from the inside.
Now all we need is a range report on it.

I hope that range report is imminent. Can't wait for this baby to hit the market abundantly! Anyone considering to buy this, gas out 3 or 4 full 15 shots mags by the dealer and lets know the good news! My experience, any pistol that goes through first 3 or 4 15 shots mags fine, is a hit. I usually tell the dealer, if he is confident about the gun he wants to sell me, I will pay for the first 30-40 bullets, and the thing will be mine if it doesn't jam. If it does, the bullets are yours! Investing the sum of 30-45 bullets in the confidence of the gun you want to keep for your SD is not a bad investment.

this pistol isnt just a copy its wonderful to fire and carry.. no isues for 100 rds i tried with it... apart from Glock it gives me more feeling of HK

Thats GR8.now we r getting good reviews.

I was at the dealer today and i did not recieve postove reports on both of the models of Akdal. The dealer told me that the gun is mis-firing and has lots of complains. Still depends on the first hand review from the user.

Ashaji

24-03-2009, 10:45 PM

I was under the impression that only the TR01 has been released here, have the other models (TR02, 03, 04) been released yet? If so which ones, and whats the differnce between them?

AK47

24-03-2009, 10:55 PM

Finally some news coming in! Well, Yalghari, what ammo did you use as the first 100? And what firing interval was used, I mean how many mags did you fire consecutively, any rapid fire as well, or just slow emptying? Aerial, random firing, or targetized? Plz elaborate.
